Lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands and remove the front wheel (loosen the bolts before lifting the vehicle); unscrew the brake caliper mounting bolts, slide out the old pads by retracting the caliper (the rear pad will come out after removing the disc); unscrew the disc mounting screw and remove it from the hub; insert the new rear pad with the corresponding mounting spring, fit the new disc (or the same if still effective) and then insert the front pad with the corresponding spring.
